Picchiettini

Ingredients Flour, eggs, and water.

How Made The flour is sifted onto a wooden board and kneaded with eggs and water. The dough is left to rest, then rolled out with a rolling pin into a sheet, not too thin, which is wrapped around the rolling pin. With a sharp knife, the dough is cut lengthwise along the pin into wide strips. These strips are folded lengthwise and cut again into matchsticks. They are boiled in plenty of salted water.

Also Known As Brudusi.

How Served As pastasciutta, with hearty ragù of lamb or mutton, almost always with truffles.
